I can hear rythmbox songs and Internet videos perfectly, but my screen sound icon is always greyed and muted, and I cannot use it for turn up and down sound volume...

Any advice would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

I just had this problem on Ubuntu 16.04. I used this to fix the problem:

killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.config/pulse/* ; rm -r ~/.pulse*; ~/.config/pulse
